Sand 4 – Microcement in Warm Sand
A Full Sand Tone with Calm
Sand 4 microcement is a deeper sand colour with distinct warmth. The shade appears fuller than mid-sand, yet remains lighter and more accessible than the darkest variants. Think evening sand or fired clay with a soft brown glow.
This colour provides a calm foundation with more atmosphere and body. Ideal if you want character without moving towards very dark.
Why Sand 4 Works
- Deep sand tone – warm and natural
- Versatile – homely and hotel-chic
- Forgiving – signs of use are less noticeable
- Material-friendly – combines well with wood, natural stone and textiles
- Waterproof after sealing – seamless and hygienic
- Underfloor heating – thin layer responds quickly and evenly
- Low-maintenance – easy to keep clean
- Renovation-proof – applicable after preparation over existing substrate
